✝️ Join Us This Sunday - Trinity Sunday! ✝️

This Sunday, May 31, we observe one of the most beautiful and mysterious celebrations in the life of the Church - Trinity Sunday - and we would love to worship with you!

Father. Son. Holy Spirit.

Three persons. One God. An eternal partnership of love that spoke creation into existence and continues to call us into something greater than ourselves. This Sunday, we celebrate the mystery and majesty of our Triune God - and explore what it means for us to join in God's ongoing work of love and renewal in the world. 🌍

We will be drawing from two powerful passages of Scripture:
📖 Genesis 1:1-2:4a - In the beginning, God...
📖 Matthew 28:16-20 - Go therefore, and make disciples...
From the first breath of creation to the Great Commission, the story of God's love has always been moving forward - and we are part of that story.

💛 A Special Offering - Endowment Fund for Theological Education
This Sunday, we will also receive a special offering in support of the Endowment Fund for Theological Education, helping to support 500 students annually as they prepare for pastoral ministry across Africa, Europe, and the Philippines. What a privilege to invest in the next generation of shepherds who will carry the gospel around the world! Every gift, large or small, makes a difference.

Join us Sunday, May 31:
☕ 9:00 AM - Coffee, Donuts & Fellowship in the Fellowship Hall
🙏 9:30 AM - Worship Service

Gracious God,

On this Memorial Day, we pray for those who courageously laid down their lives for the cause of freedom. May the examples of their sacrifice inspire in us the selfless love of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.

Bless the families of our fallen troops, and fill their homes with your strength and peace. In union with people of goodwill of every nation, embolden us to answer the call to work for peace and justice, and thus, seek an end to violence and conflict around the globe.

We ask this through your name. Amen.

🔥 Pentecost Sunday is HERE — and the Spirit is on the move! 🔥

What a month it has been! We've celebrated the beautiful gift of motherhood, welcomed the Graham twins into the family of faith through baptism, and were absolutely blown away by our young people on Student Sunday / Ascension Sunday (photo albums are on the way — stay tuned!). God has been so good to us, and the celebrations aren't over yet!

Tomorrow we gather for one of the most exciting Sundays in the entire church year — Pentecost Sunday!

🌬️✨ Spirit Unbound!
Pentecost marks the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on all believers — the moment the church was set ablaze with purpose, power, and mission. Our Scripture comes from Numbers 11:24–30 and Acts 2:1–21, reminding us that God's Spirit is unbound and available to everyone. No exceptions. No limits. No walls.

🔴🟠🟡 Wear your fire colors tomorrow! Break out your reds, oranges, and yellows and let's paint the sanctuary in the colors of Pentecost. It's going to be a beautiful sight!

☕ Here's your Sunday morning lineup:

9:00 AM — Coffee, donuts & fellowship in the Fellowship Hall
9:30 AM — Pentecost Worship Service
Sunday School for all ages to follow

Whether this is your first Sunday with us or your five hundredth, you are welcome here — just as you are. Bring a friend, wear your fire colors, and come ready to be moved by the Spirit!

We'll see you in the morning! 🙏❤️‍🔥

🌟 Join Us Tomorrow for Student Sunday! 🌟

Something extra special is happening at our church this tomorrow, and you won't want to miss it!

Our youth and children are taking the lead — from greeting you at the door all the way to delivering the Wesleyan Benediction. That's right, every aspect of worship tomorrow is in their incredibly capable hands. Come ready to be inspired by the next generation of our faith community!

Here's what's in store:
🎓 We'll be celebrating our elementary students as they promote to their next classes, and honoring our high school graduates — what a milestone! Please come help us cheer them on.
✝️ We'll also be observing Ascension Sunday, as we reflect on Christ's call to us. Our message, "Jesus' Call to Action," drawn from Acts 1:1–11, will be delivered by Raeghan Powell.

☕ Start your Sunday right:
9:00 AM — Coffee, donuts & fellowship in the Fellowship Hall
9:30 AM — Worship Service
Sunday School for all ages to follow

Whether you're a longtime member or joining us for the very first time, you are welcome here — just as you are. Come as you are, bring a friend, and let's worship together!

We'll see you tomorrow! 🙏

🌸 A Special Sunday Is Coming — Join Us Tomorrow! 🌸

Tomorrow is going to be a morning full of love, celebration, and the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit — and we would love for you to be part of it!

We are honoring all the mothers and mother figures in our lives — the women who have loved us, shaped us, prayed over us, and pointed us toward Jesus. If that's you, or if someone like that has walked alongside you, tomorrow is for you. 💛

We also have an extra special reason to celebrate — we will witness the infant baptism of the Graham twins! 🎉 What a beautiful reminder that God's story of grace is always beginning anew, and that this community is blessed to welcome new little ones into the family of faith.

"The One Who Stays" (John 14:15-21)

We continue our sermon series "Stories That Matter" with a message about the gift we are never without — the Holy Spirit, who abides in us, preserves our shared story, and weaves us together as the body of Christ. This week, we celebrate testimony, memory, and the ongoing narrative of God's love alive in our community. The Spirit has been here all along — and the Spirit isn't going anywhere. 🕊️

Join us tomorrow:
☕ 9:00 AM — Coffee, Donuts & Fellowship in the Fellowship Hall
🙏 9:30 AM — Worship Service
📸 Don't forget the Mother's Day Photo Booth in the Bethel classroom! Grab your family and friends and snap some special memories to take home.

All are welcome. Come as you are. However you arrive tomorrow — joyful, grateful, or simply in need of a place to belong — there is a seat and a community here waiting for you.

We'll see you in the morning! 🌸🕊️
